As an accelerator control system survives over several years, it is often the case that new subsystems are introduced into the original control system. The control system for the KEK electron/positron injector-linac has been using Unix…
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are the core element of industrial plants in todays deployments. They read sensor values, execute control algorithms, and write output values. Furthermore, industrial plants have lifetimes of one or…
The ISAC polarized beam facility uses a Ti:Sapphire laser for producing spin-polarized beams of short-lived radioactive isotopes, initially 7Li. The laser power and spectral content must be tightly controlled and monitored. The control…
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) rely on sensor feedback to keep safety-critical processes within operational limits. This research presents a hardware-root-of-trust that embeds a Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) at the measurement…
We integrated an injector linac control system to the SPring-8 standard system on September 2000. As a result of this integration, the SPring-8 accelerator complex was controlled by one unified system. Because the linac was continuously…
